An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The People vs. Dr. Kildare (released outside the U.S. as "My Life is Yours"), the 1941 Harold S. Bucquet doctor hospital courtroom legal lawyer medical malpractice melodrama sequel ("#7 The case of the girl with the million dollar legs!"; one of the very popular series of movies featuring this character and his crusty old mentor, Dr. Gillespie; about a champion ice skater who breaks her leg in a car crash and Dr. Kildare is a Good Samaritan at the scene who operates on her, but after she recovers, her leg is paralyzed, and she sues him and the hospital for $100,000, which was a jillion times more money in 1941!) starring Lew Ayres (in the title role as Doctor James Kildare), Lionel Barrymore (as Doctor Gillespie), Laraine Day (as Nurse Mary Lamont), Bonita Granville (as an ice skater who sues Kildare), Alma Kruger, Red Skelton (in his fifth movie!), Paul Stanton, Diana Lewis, and Dwight Frye (here he is unbilled, and plays the jury foreman!). Certainly, the plot of this movie is just as relevant today as it was in 1941, and this movie could easily be re-made today! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. We are doing something in this set of auctions we rarely do! A couple of years ago, we were approached by a very long time collector, and he asked us if he could give us an entire auction of single lobby cards by himself. We agreed, and held that auction in 2017, and later that same year, a different collector sent us a different group of 999 lobby cards and we repeated the process. Now we have a third such "single owner" collection. This one was originally assembled in Australia, which is why some of the cards have either Australian paper snipes attached or Australian ratings stamps (but many do not have them). This collection originally contained 1,100 cards, and we auctioned 100 of them in our March Major Auction, and now we are auctioning the remaining 999 in THIS set of auctions, and after this auction, there will be no more cards to be offered. As will immediately be evident when you look at the cards, many of them are from titles where you almost never see any lobby cards, so this is a rare opportunity to acquire many cards that almost never are offered for sale or at auction! Condition: very good. There is a 1" tear at top center that was repaired with tape from the back and there is green touch up over the front of that tear. Otherwise, the card has a few other minor border defects. Learn More about condition grades
